Concentration Kinetics of Serum MMP-9 and TIMP-1 after Blunt Multiple Injuries in the Early Posttraumatic Period

Figure 3

Significant inversely proportional concentration kinetics of MMP-9 and its specific inhibitor TIMP-1 during the observed posttraumatic time period of 72 h. The blue line indicates the connection of all measured time points concerning the significant decrease of MMP-9 serum concentration whereas the red one indicates the connection of all measured time points regarding the significant increase of TIMP-1 serum concentration.
